A night when it's quiet and the waves come rolling in
The merchant ship's life paints the dark as we sing his
To one who is brave, whom by words cannot be seen
When all left is love, there will be no end between
Tucked in the corner of earth, naked in light we are burned
Oh, can you hear the sea calling, calling us into the world
A distance from grace we shall toil with our days
And take on the dirt that has rendered us as slaves
Our mothers will cry, is there something in the sky
We know we are present here, they never know why
Tucked in the corner of earth, naked in light we are burned
Oh, can you hear the sea calling, calling us into the world
Tucked in the corner of earth, naked in light we are burned
Oh, can you hear the sea calling, calling us into the world
Tucked in the corner of earth, placed on the wayside of earth
Bound on the open road, naked way back home
Tucked in the corner of earth, naked in light we are burned
Oh, can you hear the sea calling, calling us into the world
